In the figure, a very large plane sheet of positive charge is shown. P 1 and P 2 are two points at distance L and 2L from the charge distribution. If σ is the surface charge density, then the magnitude of electric fields E 1 and E 2 at P 1 and P 2 respectively are:
A
B
C
D
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
As the sheet is very large 
is independent of distance from it.
Thus
